The Endless VS. The Abstracts

Who takes it?

They battle in a neutral environment, where both their powers work.

abstracts win , tho the endless are also abstract , but they haven't done much

Well, we cant really tell though, since we havent seen much of the Endless to actually gauge them. Dream is the only member of it who was introduced to us in detail. And by reading Sandman, you can tell that he's pretty powerful. He didnt just wipe out an entire race, but he wiped them out in a way that they never existed in the first place. And he's not even the strongest of them, it was implied that Destiny and Death are stronger than him and Desire, Despair, Delirium and Destruction are below but very close to him in power.

But as I said, we rarely see his brothers and sisters, so I think, currently, its impossible to pick the winners of this match.

The Endless are likely more powerful than Pantheonic Gods (Odin, Bast and such...) but still less powerful than regular angels, not to mention Michael and Lucifer.

I wouldnt say that theyre less powerful than regular angels, theyre most likely more powerful than them, Death for example, still holds power over them. Lucifer and Michael, yes I agree with you on that.

morpheus has been shown to be afraid of lucifer, but lucifer has been shown to respect morpheus (dream) as well. dream also managed to outwit lucifer and earned lucifer's enmity. the endless are enormously powerful, but they don't wield their power like the other 'abstracts' in this fight. i agree with synchro - too hard to tell.

If we go what they have done etc it will be hard to compare to someone like Eternity who can do virtually anything, and is everything

And remember Abstract there are like 20 of them each with its own field of power.

Some are even Multiversal

From what the endless has done I don’t see them winning

The endless and abstracts would not be interested, more than likely they would both have a chat. They are very similar after all.

Except that Endless are more humane...at least Death.

very true, death always reminded me of Tori Amos who did the foreward strangely for the sandman text stories book. Coincidence? Me not think so! 😄

I'd say the Endless take this one.

it really is impossible to say. the endless don't operate like this - ie they don't run out and battle, so they are not shown in these situations. you could take kg's stance and say abstracts win because endless haven't done anything, but that's kind of a nonsensical/ignorant (sorry, kg) position - just because they HAVEN'T doesn't mean they can't. and what's worse for this thread: they likely WON'T be shown doing the things that would warrant this kind of comparison. as i said, they're not written like that - and frankly, that's just the way i like it. not every abstract needs to be SHOWN obliterating a universe - if they are written well enough, certain things can be inferred. and if you know the endless, you know they are massively powerful - whether you've witnessed 'feats' or not.

Exactly my point earlier Leo. Only someone who does not read Vertigo type comics would post this type of Spam 😄

Keep the faith 😄

All things serve the beam 😆

hey whirly, why don't you come right out and tell us how you REALLY feel about sentry's threads? all this very subtle beating around the bushes has me completely confused . . .

🙂

lol!

Anyway, maybe if the Endless has been shown to do more things and was shown in fights, then yes kgkg's logic would be ok. But the problem kg, is that theyre rarely seen to be doing anything, much less fighting. Dream is the only one weve seen do anything. We've never seen Destiny fight, weve never seen Death fight, weve never seen Desire fight, weve never seen Despair fight, weve never seen Delirium fight, and weve never seen Destruction fight.

So yes, agree with leo and whirly. We cant tell.

He throws around intricate words that have a twisted meaning behind them. twisted I found that out nearly two months ago. That's why he's on my ignore list.
